I know it's already the 6th of December! and I haven't posted any photos for December, but I have been out of town celebrating the joys of the season! Ann and I had a fabulous time in San Fransisco and our December 1st kick off was amazing. So without further ado here are my December Daily photos up to today!

December 6th - Heute ist Nikolaus tag! St. Nicholas Day

The legendary figure of St. Nicholas is derived from Nicholas of Myra
who officiated as a bishop in 4th century Greece. During his lifetime he
developed a reputation for gift-giving by putting coins in other
people's shoes, which accounts for many of today's Christmas traditions
that involve leaving gifts in shoes or boots.

In the days leading up to December 6, children throughout Europe put
their shoes or a special St. Nicholas boot in front of the fireplace or
the front door at night to find them filled with small presents the next
morning. A larger amount of gifts is usually brought on the eve of St.
Nicholas Day or December 5.
